TTM Success 01/25/2014: Tim Birtsas

This past Saturday, January 25th, I received another TTM autograph. This time it was former Oakland Athletics pitcher Tim Birtsas. Tim pitched in the Athletics organization from 1985-87. Tim was originally drafted by the New York Yankees in 1982, but did not make it to the majors until his time in Oakland. He was included in the trade between the Athletics and the Yankees that sent Rickey Henderson to New York. Tim would go on to pitch for the Cincinnati Reds from 1988-90.
